So yes, with opentable it is very easy to make a reservation. You pop online and boom, you get a reservation. No waiting till after 3pm to call the restaurant or whatever, you get all your choices on one screen, etc.

But, it seems to me that with this new ease of making reservations, spots at good places are getting harder and harder to come by. I find that I am making reservations 2 weeks in advance for restaurants we would normally call the day before and be seated at.

So I have mixed feelings about the opentable thing. I think overall I like it, but I do not appreciate how it has upped the competition for tables by making it much easier to make a reservation.

Thoughts?
